The psalm references the glory of God that is even higher than the heavens. He describes the work of God in carefully and meticulously placing the moon and the stars in their places.
Psalm 8:1 references God’s “glory above the heavens.” Could it be that sometimes it takes the darkness of the night in our lives to allow God’s glory to be revealed?
Isaiah says it this way: "And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel." Isaiah 45:3
Maybe God’s glory is veiled right now waiting for that time of darkness so that you and I will know that it is the treasure He desires to give us even in the dark. What a blessing to see God’s glory in the difficult times to encourage us to continue on! This life is fraught with darkness because of sin, but God has given us treasure to find and hidden riches that will remind us that He is our God!
Someone has said, “Don’t forget in the dark the lessons that you have learned in the light.” The dark times of life are there to reveal the reality of what God is teaching us from His Word each day. Don’t miss out on the treasures in the darkness God has for you!
I don’t know what is going on in your life today, but I do know that our God cares about the little things in your life and mine—He thinks on us and visits us! Maybe you are in a time of darkness—take some time to look at the “night sky” and see the bright spots of His glory He is trying to reveal to you in your darkness. Then praise Him because He is excellent and worthy of our praise!
I don’t know what's going on in your life today, friend, but please don’t miss out on the treasures in the darkness God has for you. They are there waiting for you!
